Isaiah 22:2
2 The noisy city is full of raucous sounds;the town is filled with revelry. ▼
▼ Heb “the boisterous town.” The phrase is parallel to “the noisy city” in the preceding line.
Your slain were not cut down by the sword;
they did not die in battle. ▼
▼ Apparently they died from starvation during the siege that preceded the final conquest of the city. See J. N. Oswalt, Isaiah (NICOT), 1:409.
